St Kevin's - Dee Why

Built 1959-62 - Designed by Gibbons & Gibbons

 

"Construction commenced in 1960 by initially tracing the outline of the proposed structure in steel pipe scaffolding. Precast concrete elements forming the basic shape of the structure were then placed in position. High tensile steel wire was then drawn through and the whole structure was post tensioned , after which concrete infill panels were added".
